Abstract Abstractions at Zaha Hadid Gallery

10.10 – 19.10 2018

Zaha Hadid Gallery is pleased to present a group show featuring designers and artists whose jewellery and fashion designs were selected across a range of materials and means of expression. By bringing together the individual works of each designer within a joint context, the show seeks to promote a dialogue exploring the possible relationships between geometries – simple and complex, singular and repetitive – with the human body and the array of resulting emotive possibilities. Ranging from works of art or structures intending to be worn, to varying concepts towards the design process, all of the works exhibited challenge a figurative and narrative approach in jewellery and fashion creation, simultaneously summoning material qualities and provocations of scale as new forms of abstract expression.
